        Just look at the "show interface switchport" command.  It will
tell you if the negotiation of trunking (DTP) is enabled:
Rack1SW1#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Rack1SW1(config)#int fa0/1     
Rack1SW1(config-if)#do sh run int fa0/1
Building configuration...
Current configuration : 68 bytes
!
interface FastEthernet0/1
 switchport mode dynamic desirable
end
Rack1SW1(config-if)#do show int fa0/1 switchport | in Negotiation|Mode:
